Probably more time to practice non standard case studies1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
Trainer is knowledgeable and extremely willing to share (Posted on 7/22/2020) - might recomemnd Review by Course Participant/Trainee

The platform to run the codes if very slow and inefficient. Would be better to teach students how to run on their on computers.1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
Would be better to also specify the minimum requirements or pre-requisite for students such as a basic understanding of mathematical functions, especially for the machine learning portion of the course
Trainer today speaks very fast and it makes it hard to follow at times. He also does not go through the code together the students preferring to let the students explore by themselves before asking if they are unsure. May not be the best teaching method especially since classes are not in person (Posted on 6/17/2020) - will recommend Review by Course Participant/Trainee

Today's lesson was very heavy on statistical methods, one that i do not have background in. I think the first two days instead of introduction to python, it can be converted to introduction to statistical methods. The difference in nature is very big between Day 1-2 (Programming) and 3 (Statistical).1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
Minimum requirement for the course should be JC (trainer did mention a lot about subjects being covered in JC or Uni) in order for attendees to comprehend the topic.
Prefers to have more hands on, and visual representations of the topics being taught. (Posted on 6/17/2020) - will recommend Review by Course Participant/Trainee
